Re: Hard brakelines '59
I'd have to agree with Orrie. I've always tried to size my brake lines to match the parts I use.
Meaning that If I am using 54 Chevy car front brakes, a 69 Chevy pickup master cylinder and a mid 70's Chevy Nova rear axle I'd use brake lines that matched the front and rear brakes respectively. On my truck with that setup I used 3/16 all around and it worked well.
